When I speak, unless I’m sharing the screen I always keep looking at myself. It’s kind of strange – it clearly does not match a real-world conversation, but somehow I can’t help it.

Edit: More context – I’m wondering if others have it, if this is something that can be explained by some “brain” thing, and also how does it affect the conversation.

    When I’m talking, I try to look at the camera (which is on my middle monitor). Depending on which monitor the video call is displaying on, sometimes I’m not even looking at any of the participants or myself. That does seem to help me act more “natural”.
